‘Chihuri seized diamonds worth millions of dollars’

Former police commissioner-general Augustine Chihuri allegedly seized a vault containing diamonds worth millions of dollars belonging to a company that was in partnership with the cops before he forcibly took its claim in the claim in the gem rich Chiadzwa fields, Parliament heard yesterday.

The committee on Mines and Energy chaired by feisty independent MP for Norton, Temba Mliswa, was told the vault was never recovered.

Parliament was also told of how Chihuri allegedly had Ghanaian investors who had 30 percent stake in GyeMyame evicted from the claims by heavily armed police officers and forcibly deported back to their country despite invested heavily in the business.
